Valorous Dominion is an online role-playing experience in an alternative setting based roughly on the northern Italian city-states in the proto-reniassance period; roughly 13th to 14th Century. The city states have risen in wealth and power through trade, finance banking, and maritime dominance. Having gained their autonomy from foreign influence, they are at a time of war and competition amongst themselves.

Free companies of mercenaries dominate the land scape between cities, employed by the wealthy cities and their nobles to fight their battles for them. And within the the cities, the great noble houses compete with each other in ritualized blood feuds known as Vindicti. Even amidst all this, some still seek the glory of the past, holding onto values and traditions of the old Empire itself, seeking out adventure to restore these old values.

Disclaimer

Quite a bit of time was spent working on this theme and it isn't meant to follow the letter of any real history at any time period. This wasn't meant to be a historical game, but an original themed alternate version with more fantasy, different names and a different timeline. While we hope you enjoy the theme, we recognize it may not be for everyone and what we don't ask for is harsh criticism of deviations, and what we do ask for is respect for the creator and what was accomplished here. Please do have fun
